Stocking Smilodon and Triceratops Souvenirs

The chosen products were Compendium Tea Towels: inspired by botanical studies and classical encyclopaedias, each piece serves as a curated "compendium", a concise, annotated record of facts surrounding every motif. You find several facts scattered around these famous fabric gifts based on each motif. In this case the Triceratops dinosaur and Tempskya, the ancient fern, and Smilodon and Panthera Leo, two massive fossils from the Felidae family. Special pieces connected to their exhibits showing several other fossils to entertain their visitors.
